Paying for College - HIDDEN

There are opportunities to save on the tuition and fees at Mid. Your true out-of-pocket contribution will be the cost of attendance minus the free money that you are awarded, which can come in the form of grants and scholarships. This is called the net cost of attendance .

*Cost of Attendance breakdown:

In-District tuition & fees {$5,578} + Books & Supplies {$1,460} + Transportation {$1,840} = $8,878

Out-District tuition & fees {$8,188} + Books & Supplies {$1,460} + Transportation {$1,840} = $11,488

Tuition & Fees includes tuition, enrollment fee, and activity fee (2022-2023 rates). Books & Supplies, and Transportation costs are estimated.

**Average Financial Aid is based on 2020-2021 IPEDS REPORT, calculated for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates.
